Circle for Dua - Safety & Security of all momineen around the world

Assalaam o Alaikum,

Deep sorrow engulfs all of us with the terrible news of hate crimes and terror on a daily basis.  It has become scary to switch the tv to a news channel!  Not knowing who is the next victim of this horrible crime and hatred towards so many in Pakistan lately!  No one knows who is doing it, no one knows who to blame.  Sad situation to a point where anyone with any recognition or fame and relation to the shia sect is being tortured and martyred.

Another sad victim of this hatred was Ustaad (professor) Sibte Jaffar in Karachi, Pakistan.  An eloquent speaker and a lover of Ahlulbayt (A.S), and one who was martyred in the name of his religous sect.  Sadness everywhere, students, youth, adults... all in pain and sorrow for this loss to humanity!  No words to speak of this loss... Our condolences to his family and friends on this sad demise. 

On the same note, a thought comes to mind.  Why not pray for all those in hardships.  I decided to work with a team of youth to create a circle of prayer.  A week long prayer cycle where we pray for those in hardships.  Collecting a set of prayers for daily recitation (tasbihaat and dua as well as surahs from the quran) for the safety of all momineen around the world who are in hardships.  May Allah SWT protect them and keep them in his hifz and imaan!

Let us join in prayers... Recommended prayers are as follows:

Day 1:

Tasbih:
Recite atleast 1 tasbih

LAA H'AWLA WA LAA QUWWATA ILLA BILLAAH

There is no power nor strength with (anyone) save Allah

 

Day 2:

Recite the following verse 129 of al Bara at to remove worries:

Allah suffices me. There is no god but He. On Him do I rely, and He is the Lord of the great throne.

H'ASBIYALLAAHU LAAA ILAAHA ILLAA HUW A'LAYHI TAWAKKALTU WA HUWA RABBUL A'RSHIL A'Z'EEM.

 

 

Day 3:

حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَ نِعْمَ الْوَكِيْلُ

H'ASBUNALLAAHU WA NI' MAL WAKEEL 

Allah is sufficient for us; and most excellent is He (who) protects us.
